Lancia Ypsilon, 312

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Lancia Ypsilon, 312 uses automatic transmission fluid with a capacity range of 1,55 to 1,75 liters. Service intervals occur at 90000 km or 72 months. The data covers 6 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • All six configurations listed use a transaxle semi-automatic unit rather than a conventional torque-converter automatic transmission. A transaxle combines the transmission and final drive into a single housing, which is a common layout in front-wheel-drive vehicles where space efficiency is a priority.
  • The Lancia Ypsilon 312 0.9 TwinAir Turbo CNG (63 kW) carries a fluid capacity of 1.75 liters, which is notably higher than the 1.55-liter figure shared by all other configurations in the lineup. The additional volume in the CNG variant may relate to differences in the transmission calibration or internal components associated with natural gas powertrain integration.
  • The 1.55-liter capacity applies to five distinct configurations: the 0.9 TwinAir Turbo (59 kW), the 0.9 TwinAir Turbo (63 kW) in both Euro 5 and Euro 6 emissions standards, the 1.2 8V, and the 1.2 8V LPG. This figure represents a service fill level, meaning the volume of fluid required during a routine top-up or fluid exchange rather than a full overhaul refill.
  • Every configuration carries an identical service interval of 90,000 km or 72 months under normal use conditions. The 72-month ceiling means a time-based limit applies regardless of mileage accumulation, which is relevant for low-mileage vehicles that may not reach the distance threshold within six years.
  • The interval specification is designated as a check interval rather than a mandatory replacement interval. A check at 90,000 km or 72 months involves inspecting fluid condition and level, with replacement determined by the state of the fluid at that point.
  • The 0.9 TwinAir Turbo engine appeared in two distinct power outputs across the Ypsilon 312 range: 59 kW and 63 kW. Despite the difference in output, both share the same 1.55-liter fluid capacity and identical service interval, indicating the transmission unit itself is consistent between the two power variants.
  • The 63 kW TwinAir Turbo was produced in three separate variants distinguished by emissions certification and fuel type: Euro 5 (2011-2016), Euro 6 (2013-2020), and CNG (2013-2024). The Euro 5 and Euro 6 petrol variants share the 1.55-liter capacity, while the CNG version requires 1.75 liters.
  • The 1.2 8V and 1.2 8V LPG configurations share identical fluid capacity and service interval figures despite the difference in fuel system. Both cover the 2011-2020 period and use the same 1.55-liter fill volume, indicating the LPG conversion does not alter the transmission specification.
